Footnote 1

You must provide an authentication password when you create or modify users (SNMP v3 only).

Footnote 2

If the privacyprotocol property has a value other than none, then you must set a privacy password.

Footnote 3

AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) privacy protocol option is available for SNMPv 3 as of Oracle ILOM 3.0.16.

For example, to change privacyprotocol for user a1 to DES, use the following syntax:

-> set /SP/services/snmp/users/al privacyprotocol=DES 
privacypassword=password authenticationprotocol=SHA 
authenticationpassword=password
      

Note that the changes would be invalid if the following syntax was specified:

-> set /SP/services/snmp/users/al privacyprotocol=DES

Note:

You can change SNMP user permissions without resetting the privacy and authentication properties.
